Are you in any way exposed to asbestos fiber? Beware of Mesothelioma cancer [Must Read]

Many people have unknowingly become victims of cancer as a result of their occupation.

What is Mesothelioma? It's a rare cancer caused by inhaling asbestos fibers that lodge in the lining of the lungs, abdomen and heart. The disease mostly affects people who worked with products containing asbestos.

These include workers at Auto mechanics, textile workers, steel mill workers, construction workers and firefighters.

Thousands of new cases of mesothelioma is discovered each year.

Its most common symptoms include: Dry coughing, shortness of breath, respiratory complications, pain in the chest or abdomen, faigue, weakness in the muscles, etc.

These mesothelioma symptoms usually do not show until tumors have grown and spread. It takes 20-50 years. That's why many people with mesothelioma are in their 60s or 70s.

Doctors often treat the cancer with chemotherapy, surgery, radiation or a combination of all three treatment options.

You should talk to a mesothelioma specialist soon if you have a history of asbestos exposure and experience these symptoms.
